*TOP 10% GLOBAL PODCAST* Are you concerned about what your school system is teaching your children? Of what might happen when your children and grandchildren leave the good influences of hearth and home and ship off to school or university? You have reason to be concerned. For our noble and great ones from America’s illustrious past are being condemned and cancelled by nearly all of America’s once great schools and universities. I’m Rick Robison. Husband, father, grandfather, Veterans Hospital Volunteer, historian, and former intel officer. But most of all concerned patriot seeing our once exceptional nation being “fundamentally transformed” from within. “History must be judged strenuously and within historical context.” Please join with us in our quest to shine the light of truth on America’s glorious past. To honor America’s heroes and heroines. For without them, our world today would be a dark and despotic place, one we would not recognize. For “Not to know what occurred before you were born is to remain always a child. For what is the worth of a human being unless it be woven into the life, the mosaic, of our ancestors” (Marcus Tullius Cicero). To leap with both feet into such a vital adventure requires that we gather, but more so, harness, the stories of our illustrious heroes and heroines. To do that successfully we must place them within a comprehendible historical setting. This takes work, my friends. This is the “why” of the HEROES FOR FREEDOM Podcast Series. Its purpose and mission. With a passion we’ve done the heavy lifting. Transporting you back in time to experience what it was like standing shoulder-to-shoulder with history’s noble and great ones, as they rose to save our world…yet, too often sacrificing life and limb. Freely offering their “last full measure of devotion” in our behalf. The 100 Indispensable Heroes of American History. An entertaining, fast-moving ride we guarantee will thrill you, right down to the often-shocking finish! Each story provides proof of why, and how, these heroes are heroes, saving our nation, our world, and our way of life. Please join with me each week immersing yourself in our unique and entertaining “HEROES FOR FREEDOM” Podcast Series. Walk in their footsteps. Witness through their eyes how these genuine, honest, everyday people helped save our world! In this I guarantee that you, but more so your children, will rekindle a passion for life, suddenly seeing the potential this great, God-centered land offers every honest, hardworking seeker after truth. Stories that restore and inspire young minds and hearts—of all ages! By embracing these noble and great ones, we join with them—E Pluribus Unum—as they offer “their lives, their fortunes, their sacred honor.” I know you’ll agree. We need such heroes, now more than ever. I’m Rick Robison and this is the HEROES FOR FREEDOM Podcast.

John Glover and his Marblehead Mariners, with seemingly impossible stealth, evacuated Washington’s entire army, all 9,000 men, across the East River onto Manhattan Island in nine miraculous hours during a SINGLE night!

 

But it would never have happened without one often ignored event which I see as nothing short of divine intervention. For just as the British were preparing to attack, the river and shores were quickly blanketed in...

Most Americans do not know that Abraham Lincoln, when elected president, went from “apostate to prophet” all in those critical four years of the Civil War.

 

And helping along his miraculous conversion was a humble, yet highly capable, Army nurse by the name of Rebecca Pomroy.

 

What she was able to accomplish with the Lincoln Family in the White House that dreadful winter of 1862 changed the course of history.

 

This is the often-...

We have reached a milestone in America’s beloved past. The 249th and 250th year anniversary of this grand experiment in republicanism, in self-government, but mostly in individual freedom.

 

But, ironically, as of late, we are facing the gravest challenge we have ever faced. And the danger, tragically, is coming from...

The massive British Army under the command of General John Burgoyne, was rushing to attack and destroy Washington’s Continental Army.

 

The Americans needed time to prepare.

 

And young Thaddeus with his unique skills would give the Americans that time.

 

Moving fast with his engineers and rangers, Thaddeus and his team cut trees in the path of the British, laid out traps and ambushes, built dams to flood the streams and rivers mak...

On a sweltering July day in 1863, the quiet town of Gettysburg, Pennsylvania exploded!

 

This tiny hamlet became the center of the decisive battle for the world’s most pivotal nation locked passionately in its final death throes.

 

The clash between North and South would decide the fate not only of our nation, but by extension, the world.

 

It would be a horribly bloody three-days producing more than 51,000 casualties—mostly young ...

“I will get my hands on that American woman and destroy her!”

 

This was the threat of Klaus Barbie, the local Gestapo chief, known as the “Butcher of Lyon.”

 

The powers of hell seemed to be gathering all around young Virginia Hall. She was simply out of time.

 

More so, thousands of young American Rangers would be soon landing on the beaches of Normandy. She and her resistance fighters must help prepare the way or thousands would...

They loved each other for 54 years.

 

Even as Abigail lay on her deathbed, John sat by her holding her hand.

 

They had been through everything together—declaring independence from the most powerful empire on earth, the American Revolution, creating a great republic from a divided people, opposing slavery, representing the United States abroad, and then the American presidency.

 

Abigail and John were a team, perhaps the most impor...

During the Civil War she also scouted for the Union Army.

 

HARRIET TUBMAN is a well-known American hero who risked her life to help escaping slaves. 

 

What is not known about her was what drove her fervently, a passion that is today often suppressed by historians, increasingly removing her powerful testimony of Jesus, and of miracles, from the historical rec...

The young woman, Ella, watched as her father and brothers were beheaded before her eyes.

 

She, along with her younger sister, were tied together with the captive women and children, now the slaves and concubines of the Arab invaders. Ella feared she would never see her mother and her beloved homeland again.

 

For the first time in history, a great Muslim Army under the command of General Abd-al-Rahman al-Ghafiqi, invaded what wou...

I was four years old.

 

Fascinated, I stood on the banks of a storm-swollen, raging river. The next thing I remember I was tumbling beneath the rapids, being washed into the depths.

 

But as I turned over under the frigid torrent I could see up through the water the face of a Bonafide angel. His arms were reaching for me, stretching until he snagged my coat. He then pulled me up from the cold and set me on dry ground.

This is a story few Americans have ever heard.

 

We consider this a travesty, for it is America’s history, a story of adventure, tragedy, unbelievable professional skill, and undying dedication to a cause.

Nancy was a tall, lanky, powerful woman, standing nearly 6 feet and perfectly bred for backwoods life. She had long, thick hair and a fearless, determined spirit. Friends said she was an excellent shot with a rifle and could handle a man’s full day of heavy labor with nary a complaint. She was also a skilled herbalist and backwoods doctor and a devout Christian. She always helped her neighbors...

Pauline saw her nation being destroyed from within, torn apart by Southern Rebels. And though at first, she refused to get involved.

 

But when the call came to stand and fight, she did, in the only way she knew how, as a special spy for Abraham Lincoln, no less, a mission she executed with great skill, helping to save her beloved United States.

 

In the end, however, she died sick and all alone far from home, tragically hoping tha...

We often learn more from our heroes’ failures than their successes…

 

The old man, head bent forward in hopelessness, rode silently in the public carriage. He flexed his right fist, looking at the hand that God had given him to raise to the square, as God had called him to Christ’s Ministry years before when he was a rebellious young man.

 

Inside and seated across from him was a beautiful young woman, a stranger. For some reason s...

James knew. This time it was up to him.

 

Piloting his supercharged P-51 Mustang fighter, reaching speeds up to 440 mph, his eyes narrowed on the mass of incoming German Luftwaffe warplanes—more than 30 strong!—all with orders to shoot down the slow, lumbering, American B-17s, those that James must protect—at all cost.

 

These B-17 crews of young American airmen, grit their teeth, seeing the swarms of enemy and doubting they would ...

Christianity was about to be conquered and extinguished by a massive enemy army.

 

September 11th in 1683, the City of Vienna—the Gateway to Western Europe—was about to be overrun and wiped out. The survival of Christian Europe in the balance.

He was the young nose gunner in a B-29 Superfortress. This was his 25th and last mission. But it would be his toughest.

 

Their target was the Hodogaya Chemical Plant located in the heart of Tokyo City. A vital target that while operating provided the Japanese military with the critical chemicals needed to continue the war. As his bomber approached the target they were swarmed by Japanese Ze...

Over the past half-millennium, the name of Christopher Columbus has run the gambit from hero to genocidal monster.

 

By his own admission, Columbus “was not an educated man.” Yet he spoke at least four languages and could write skillfully in two.

He was a devout Christian who never uttered a profanity, yet spent his life around sailors, some of the most profane men on earth.

 

Today our children are taught to blame Columbus for muc...

The American nation was dying. Everyone could see it.

 

The South’s leaders, both military and political, were determined to tear apart the United States, breaking up the American continent into several opposing “statelets,” some slave, some free, but all hating each other in perpetuity.

 

To stop and defeat this Satanic process was, in my mind, why President Abraham Lincoln was born and why he is perhaps the most irreplaceable her...
